I'm at jury duty yesterday, doing a mosy down the hall killing time before voir dire, when I see a penny (yep, that's what I called it ) laying on the bench I'm walking by. Wheat ears are facing up!

1936-D, in VG condition.

No pic, but it really did happen. :)

WHAT ARE THE CHANCES? I would bet someone was admiring it and just happened to lay it down and forgot to pick it up when they got up and left.

(NICE FIND)
